Fairytales
Synopsis: What happens when a child’s innocence is invaded
by the harsh realities of our world? Is our child still protected by the innocent world of fairytales? Or are we the ones living in a fairytale thinking our child is still innocent?
Inspired by the teenage gang-related slashing incident at Downtown East last year, “Fairytales” is a film that tells the story of three kids and their real life big bad wolves. A story that could possibly tell you who your kids truly are, and not who you think they are. In our pursuit of a “better” life for them, have we failed to be a better parent to them?
ingapore, a country which has achieved tremendous wonders and successes that many other countries can only dream of, is regarded by many as a fairytale land. It boasts world-class accomplishments in every field that it embarks on, and its people enjoy the privilege of living in a First World city built by its visionary and hardworking leaders. With housing, employment, education, healthcare and transportation all well taken care of, Singapore seems like the perfect place to raise children.
But every accomplishment comes with a price. Growing up in such a fairytale land, what have many of our children become?
Jason, Amanda and Guna are three teenagers studying in the same school. On the surface, they are just like any other teenager out there, facing typical challenges of growing up. However, beneath this façade lie rooted issues that have grown too deep for them to handle, causing them to become disillusioned by making choices that lead to disastrous consequences.
Nonetheless, the trio soon discovers that no matter how many wrong choices they have made in the past, it is never too late to make the right choice again.
